●The photographs and drawings shown in this manual may

differ from those of actual vehicles due to changes in vehicle
specifications and modifications made.

●This vehicle is designed for 2 riders including the operator.

Caution

●Do not use polluted gasoline.

Using polluted gasoline will cause rust inside the fuel
tank, and will close the supply of fuel to the carburetor,
leading to an improper engine starting or may cause
serious damage to an engine.

●Do not use polluted or low-grade oil.

Always use genuine oil to protect and extend vehicle
performance and its life span.

●If any failure occurs due to the use of polluted gasoline

or oil, such failure will be excluded from being eligible
for repairs under the warranty.

●Careful driving and the wearing of proper attire and safety

equipment are the most important factors in the safe
operation of the delfino scooter. Please obey traffic
regulations and do not be hurried and careless.

●Many new vehicle owners operate their newly purchased

vehicles with great care and attention to safety factors.
However, after becoming accustomed to the operations are
often discarded, which can lead to accidents. Please don't let
this happen to you and always approach the operation of your
vehicle with the safety considerations needed.
When operating the vehicle, always keep in mind and obey
the notes of precaution printed on the “Safety Precaution
Label”attached to the vehicle.

●It is possible that starting will be more

difficult if the vehicle has not been used
for a long period of time or if the fuel
hole is plugged up(starting problems
even when there is sufficient fuel in the
fuel tank may be an indication of a
plugged fuel hole).
When this happens, do not rotate the
throttle grip and try the starter button a
few times.

●To prevent the battery from losing its

charge, do not keep the starter button
pressed for more than 5 seconds at a
time. If the engine does not start after
pressing the starter button for 5 seconds,
wait 10 seconds and try again.

<Without electric start(kick)>

●Erect main stand and hold rear brake

lever and then step kick starter pedal
strongly.

󳡂 When the engine is cold, let the engine

idle for a short period allow the engine
to warm up.

Caution

●Make sure to place kick starter in

its original position after the engine
has been started.

●Be sure to erect main stand and side

stand when starting.

●Do not use the starter button and the

kick-starter pedal simultaneously.

Caution

●Keep holding rear brake until start.

●Exhaust has contains harmful subs-

tance such as carbon monoxide.
Start engine in well-ventilated places.

If engine cannot be started or vehicle does
not move, check the followings.

●Is there fuel in fuel tank?

●Are you operating in accordance with the

instructions given in owner’s manual?

●Is fuse not cut?

●Is starter motor running?

●If starter motor is not running due to

battery consumption, try starting motor
by using kick start technique.

󳠿 Fold the main stand.

●Push the vehicle forward to fold the

main stand and make sure that the brake
lever does not become released during
this operation.

󳡀 Get on the vehicle.

●Mounting should be done from the left

side, and you should sit squarely on the
seat. Leave either one foot or both feet
planted on the ground.

20

Caution

●Do not excessively open the throttle

until you actually start the driving
operation of the vehicle.

If Engine cannot be Started After Starting Engine

Caution

●Keep holding rear brake lever

before starting.

󳡁 Squeeze tightly on the rear brake lever

and the lock lever will be
automatically released.

󳡂 Release the squeezing tension on the

rear brake lever and slowly begin to
rotate the throttle grip to allow for a
slow and easy start. ●Before entering traffic, use the correct

turn signal to foreward other drivers of
your intentions.

21

Caution

●Do not rapidly trun the throttle grip

when you release the rear brake
lock. The vehicle may spring out,
causing injury or damage.

Caution

●A quick rotating of the throttle grip

will cause the vehicle to move
suddenly forward.

Proper Driving Methods

Speed is controlled by the operation of
the throttle grip.

●

If the throttle grip is rotated........

The speed of the vehicle increases.
Please rotate the throttle grip slowly.
When climbing a hill, the throttle grip
need to be rotated further to give the
vehicle more power.

●

If the throttle grip is allowed to

rotate back........

Speed decreases. This can be done
slowly or quickly, depending on how
quickly you need to decelerate.

Work the front and rear brakes
together.

●Allow the throttle grip to rotate back to

its beginning position and then squeeze
the brake levers.

●If is best to operate the brakes by first

lightly squeezing the brake levers and
then changing to a more firm squeeze.

The brakes should never be suddenly
applied and the handle bars should
never be suddenly turned.

●Sudden braking or turning can cause the

vehicle to slide and tip over.

●It is especially dangerous to perform

sudden braking on wet roads or in rainy
weather as the tires can lose traction and
slip easily.

22

Caution

●If only one of the brakes is used, it

is possible for the vehicle to
experience sliding.

ROTATE

BACK ROTATE

RR. BRAKE

FR. BRAKE

23

Special care in driving should be
taken during rainy weather.

●More braking distance is needed when

driving on wet roads or in the rain.
Reduce speed and be sure to initiate the
braking operation sooner than when
driving in normal conditions.

●On downgrades, allow the throttle grip

to rotate back to its initial position to
reduce speed, and apply the brakes and
drive slowly down the hill.

●It is possible for the brakes to

temporarily lose operative ability after
driving through a puddle or when
driving in the rain. To ensure that the
brakes are operating properly, slow
down(after checking for other vehicles)
and while driving slowly, lightly apply
the brakes to rid the brakes of any
excess water and to dry them.

●Be extremely careful when driving in

the snow or on icy roads.
When driving in these conditions, both
the tires lose much of their traction and
the rear tire can slip when opening the
throttle.

󳠿 When approaching the desired

stopping area.

●Activate the proper winker, and after

checking for other vehicles, slowly turn
into the area in which you want to stop.

●Allow the throttle grip to rotate compl-

etely back and apply the front and rear
brakes. The brake light will shine to
alert vehicles in back of you that you are
stopping.

󳡀 After the vehicle has come to a

complete stop.

●Return the winker switch to the center

position and turn the main switch to
OFF. This will turn the engine off.

Stopping

Caution

●Do not rotate the main switch key

while driving. If the main switch is
turned to an OFF or LOCK
position, the electrical system will
not operate. Operating the main
switch key while driving can be
very hazardous. Only turn the main
switch key to OFF or LOCK
positions after completing stopping
the vehicle.

󳡁 Dismount on the left side and lower the

main stand on a flat surface.

●Be sure to park in an area that is free of

traffic. Also, the vehicle can tip over if
the main stand is not placed on a stable
and flat surface.

●The main stand is lowered by grasping

the handle bars with the left hand,
holding the rear carrier with the right
hand, and stepping firmly on the stand
with the right foot. In this position, lift
the rear carrier upward, which will
secure the main stand.

󳡂 To prevent theft, be sure to lock handle

bars when parking.

Self inspect the vehicle and have regular
maintenance inspections for increased
safety and the prevention of accidents.
Regular maintenance inspections should
be performed even if the vehicle has not
been used for a long period of time.

Self inspections before operation should be
performed on a daily basis prior to
operating the vehicle.

●Inspections of concerned Area

●Brake inspection

●Tire inspection

●Fuel check

●Engine oil check

●Lights and winker inspection

●Back mirror inspection

●Fuel leak inspection

●License plate inspection

Caution

●Park in a safe area that will not

block traffic. When you parked the
vehicle after driving, make sure
foot the vehicle beyond man’s
reach because engine and muffler
are still hot.

Self Inspections before Operation

25

Check areas which caused for concern
when last operating the vehicle.

Inspection of concerned Area

Caution

Observe safety rules when conducting
inspections.

●Exhaust gas contains harmful

substance such as carbon mono­xide. Do not carry out inspections
on vehicle in closed places, or in
poorly ventilated places, with
engine running.

●Conduct inspections on flat, solid

ground with the stand erected.

●Be careful of burns when conducting

inspections immediately after engine
is stopped because the engine and
muffler are hot.

●Stop engine and remove the key

prior to the vehicle maintenance
service.

●Use appropriate types of tools.

●If you are unable to correct trouble

even after you make adjustment or
correction, contact authorized
maintenance shops, dealers or
designated repair shops for
necessary inspection and repairs.

[Brake Lever Free play]

Lightly squeeze the brake levers until
tension is felt to check for an appropriate
amount of free play. No free play in the
brake levers or overly loose brake levers
are indication of a problem in the brake
system.

[Check of Brake Fluid]

This is checked by placing the vehicle on
its main stand on a flat surface. Make sure
that the handle bars are at a horizontal
level. Check to see if the fluid is below the
LOWER level.
If brake fluid is significantly low, this may
indicate that there is leakage in the brake
system. Inspect the brake hose to check for
leaks.

[Air Pressure Check]

Check for an appropriate level of air
pressure by examining how the tire sits on
the ground. If you notice any abnormalities
in the shape of the tire with regard to the
